PRECAUTIONS
Revision: June 20062007 Versa
SERVICE COUPLERS
Never attempt to connect HFC-134a (R-134a) service couplers to a
CFC-12 (R-12) A/C system. The HFC-134a (R-134a) couplers will
not properly connect to the CFC-12 (R-12) system. However, if an
improper connection is attempted, discharging and contamination
may occur.
REFRIGERANT WEIGHT SCALE
Verify that no refrigerant other than HFC-134a (R-134a) and speci-
fied oils have been used with the scale. If the scale controls refriger-
ant flow electronically, the hose fitting must be 1/2″-16 ACME.
CHARGING CYLINDER
Using a charging cylinder is not recommended. Refrigerant may be vented into air from cylinder’s top valve
when filling the cylinder with refrigerant. Also, the accuracy of the cylinder is generally less than that of an
electronic scale or of quality recycle/recharge equipment.
Precautions for Leak Detection DyeEJS00572
The A/C system contains a fluorescent leak detection dye used for locating refrigerant leaks. An ultraviolet
(UV) lamp is required to illuminate the dye when inspecting for leaks.
Always wear fluorescence enhancing UV safety goggles to protect your eyes and enhance the visibility of
the fluorescent dye.
The fluorescent dye leak detector is not a replacement for an electronic refrigerant leak detector. The fluo-
rescent dye leak detector should be used in conjunction with an electronic refrigerant leak detector to pin-
point refrigerant leaks.
For your safety and your customer’s satisfaction, read and follow all manufacture’s operating instructions
and precautions prior to performing the work.
A compressor shaft seal should not be repaired because of dye seepage. The compressor shaft seal
should only be repaired after confirming the leak with an electronic refrigerant leak detector.
Always remove any remaining dye from the leak area after repairs are complete to avoid a misdiagnosis
during a future service.
Do not allow dye to come into contact with painted body panels or interior components. If dye is spilled,
clean immediately with the approved dye cleaner. Fluorescent dye left on a surface for an extended period
of time cannot be removed.
Do not spray the fluorescent dye cleaning agent on hot surfaces (engine exhaust manifold, etc.).
Do not use more than one refrigerant dye bottle (1/4 ounce /7.4 cc) per A/C system.
Leak detection dyes for HFC-134a (R-134a) and CFC-12 (R-12) A/C systems are different. Do not use
HFC-134a (R-134a) leak detection dye in CFC-12 (R-12) A/C system or CFC-12 (R-12) leak detector dye
in HFC-134a (R-134a) A/C system or A/C system damage may result.
The fluorescent properties of the dye will remain for over three (3) years unless a compressor malfunction
occurs.
IDENTIFICATION LABEL FOR VEHICLE
Vehicles with factory installed fluorescent dye have this identification label on the front side of hood.

Auto Active TestEKS00JLN
DESCRIPTION
In auto active test mode, operation inspection can be performed when IPDM E/R sends a drive signal to
the following systems:
–Rear window defogger
–Front wipers
–Tail, license and parking lamps
–Daytime lamp system (Canada only)
–Front fog lamps
–Headlamps (High, Low)
–A/C compressor (magnet clutch)
–Cooling fan
OPERATION PROCEDURE
1. Close hood and front door RH, and lift wiper arms away from windshield (to prevent glass damage by
wiper operation).
NOTE:
When auto active test is performed with hood opened, sprinkle water on windshield beforehand.
2. Turn ignition switch OFF.
3. Turn ignition switch ON and, within 20 seconds, press front door switch LH 20 times. Then turn ignition
switch OFF.
4. Turn ignition switch ON within 10 seconds after ignition switch OFF.
5. When auto active test mode is actuated, horn chirps once.
6. After a series of operations is repeated three times, auto active test is completed.
NOTE:
When auto active test mode has to be cancelled halfway, turn ignition switch OFF.
CAUTION:
Be sure to perform BL-40, "
Door Switch Check" when the auto active test cannot be performed.
Cooling fan output MOTOR FANWith a certain operation (1, 2, 3, 4), the cooling fan relays can be oper-
ated.
Horn output HORN With a certain ON-OFF operation, the horn relay can be operated.Test name CONSULT-II screen display Description

FRONT WIPER AND WASHER SYSTEM
Revision: June 20062007 Versa
Removal and Installation of Front Wiper ArmsEKS00I22
REMOVAL
1. Turn wiper switch on to operate wiper motor, and then turn wiper switch off (auto stop).
2. Open hood, remove wiper arm caps, and remove wiper arm nuts.
3. Raise wiper arm, and remove wiper arm from the vehicle.
INSTALLATION
1. Clean up the pivot area as shown. This will reduce possibility of
wiper arm looseness.
2. Prior to wiper arm installation, turn on wiper switch to operate
wiper motor and then turn it off (auto stop).
3. Push wiper arm onto pivot shaft, paying attention to blind spline.
4. Lift the blade up and then set it down onto glass surface to set
the blade center to clearance “L1” and “L2” immediately before
temporarily tightening the wiper arm nuts.
5. Spray washer fluid. Turn on wiper switch to operate wiper motor
and then turn it off.
6. Make sure that wiper blades stop within clearance “L1” and “L2”
and reposition as necessary.
7. Tighten wiper arm nuts to specification.
8. Attach wiper arm caps.
Adjustment of Wiper Arm Stop Location EKS00IJR
ADJUSTMENT
To adjust the wiper arm stop location, the wiper arm must be removed and installed. Refer to WW-24, "Adjust-
ment of Wiper Arm Stop Location" .
